    People saying Matthysse "didn't do enough" or "started slow" don't really know what they're talking about.

    I thought he fought an excellent tactical fight. He spent the first half of the fight specifically targeting Judah's body to slow him down - something which people obviously aren't smart enough to notice and score.

      And a hometown decision isnt a robbery?

      The fight should be scored the same no matter where they fight. Just because they were home doesnt mean they deserve to win more

Either way, that fight should really put the brakes on everybody that is really hyping Matthyse right now. He had a tough 12 rounds with a 33 year old Judah, take a second to think about what that means.
        You got to look at the playing field at 140 though. Who else has the ability to box and move against him the way Judah did?

        I believe he beats up Rios. Garcia is a 50/50 fight although I'd favor Matthysse.. Khan can give him problems for as long as his chin holds up which would probably not be long. I need to see how Peterson bounces back from the drug test before I pass judgement on him.

        But an argument can be made that he's the strongest contender at 140 right now.

          I don't agree with you here..There was a reason Pac slowed in the 2end half of the fight..The same there was a reason Judah slowed and was knockdown and why Alexander was holding on for dear life as well...Good body work is good body work..Bradley was committed to it in the Pac fight,and it payed off...

            Matthysse definitely got robbed. . . Judah won 3-4 rounds tops. . .

            I challenge somebody to score 7 rounds in that fight for Judah, which is what it would have taken for him to win. . All Lucas has to do is win 6 rounds, cause of the KD point.

            NO WAY he won 7 rounds in that fight. . Not possible. .

            It was just as bad of a robbery as the Alexander fight was.

            Matthysse is undefeated.

              I never said anything like that,and no I don't believe a robbery and a hometown decision is the same thing..I agree a fight should be scored right no matter where the fight takes place...you can make an argument that Cotto should(in Shanes case a draw was the better outcome imo)have lost to both Shane and Clottey but they were in the garden where you knew a close fight would go to Cotto hands down...That was not a robbery more like a hometown decision...The same goes for Froch Kessler,or even Froch Dirrell..Close fights that the hometown fighter get's the nod in..Pwill vs Lara was a robbery,a much different looking fight bro...

                This. . If Lucas "didn't do enough," then Judah didn't do ****. . Cause Lucas was busier than Judah in the first half of the fight, as he was in the second half. . And like u said, it was very tactical from Lucas in the first half of hte fight - he landed crisp, hard shots to the body regularly.

                There was only 1, or 2 rounds that Judah won "decisively," then there was another 1-2 rounds where you could make an argument for Judah. . 5 rounds for Judah? Ehh, maybe if you're an excellent arguer. . 6 rounds for Judah? You don't deserve feet. . At this point, even if u give 6 rounds to Judah, Lucas still wins. . BUT 7 ROUNDS TO JUDAH?!? Kill yo'self.

                  I challenge anybody who prides themselves on being a boxing fan, to score 7 rounds to Judah in that fight. . .

                    Pacquiao didn't slow down, he coasted lol. He was so comfortable in there, it looked like a sparring session. Stop trying to justify that robbery...
